This winter, leave the cold behind and come kite with us in one of the most beautiful corners of East Africa.
Experience Kenya’s Diani Beach, where white sand meets steady trade winds.
An unforgettable 11-day kite retreat for women only. Designed to bring together a group of passionate kite ladies in our private villa, where you can totally unwind and focus on progression, connection, and pure joy, on and off the water.
Just a little south of Diani lies Galu Beach, one of our favourite kite playgrounds. We will be kiting and living there.
Think endless stretches of soft sand, turquoise warm water. Protected lagoon area. Perfect kite conditions for beginners and advanced alike. And all this with very few people around.
There’s loads of room to set up, launch, and land without stress. And if you ever need a helping hand, our partnering school is right there. always ready to catch your kite, give you a launch, or even jump in for a rescue if needed.
Our partnering kite school is located in a stunning bar and restaurant at the kite spot. Offering cozy sunbeds, cool drinks and delicious food and snacks. Perfect to relax and refill out between your kite sessions.
Programm*
DAY 1 | Arrival
Pick up at Mombasa Airport or individual arrival, followed by check-in at our Villa in Galu Beach. Visit the spot, set up and storage equipment at the kite school. Depending on arrival time, we can already squeeze in the first kite session, followed by dinner at the villa prepared by our local chef.
DAY 2-10 | Kite Action
Breakfast followed by a kite theory lesson to prepare you for the kite day. The wind normally starts around 10-11 am. We enjoy the day kiting and fueling up at the bar right at the spot. Coaching, or freeriding, throughout the afternoon. At day's end, we unwind in a relaxing atmosphere, letting the kite-filled day come to a gentle close with delicious local food prepared for us at our villa. Some evenings we will go out together and explore local restaurants.
DAY 11 | Check-out
Enjoy breakfast and a final recap of your kite progress and overall experience. Relax at the kite school facilities until your departure.
Dinner and Breakfast
We will have a kitchen team at our villa who will prepare breakfast and dinner for us using fresh, local ingredients. They will tailor the meals to our preferences and wishes.
*The final program will be shaped around the wind forecast. When it's windy, we kite. No worries if there's no wind; we have several activities ready, scuba diving, boat trips, SUP, safari and more.
We’ll be staying in an exclusive five-bedroom villa with a private pool and a big garden. Each room is spacious and comfortable, with a private ensuite bathroom.
The common areas are open and airy, made for relaxing, sharing stories, and celebrating the day’s sessions with a cold drink in hand. You’ll be looked after by our private chef, who prepares fresh and delicious breakfast and dinner for us in the villa using local ingredients.
The Villa is located in a quite area in Galu Beach not far from the beach. No driving, no packing up. Just kite, eat, chill, repeat.
The villa has high-speed WIFI and enough space to find a private corner for those who have to get some work done.
Diani Beach is a small coastal town south of Mombasa. We will be staying and kiting in Galu Beach. The wilder and peaceful part of Diani Beach.
It is the perfect place to unwind, relax, kite, and enjoy a true kite holiday by the beach with a group of amazing kite women from all over the world.
While the main focus of the trip is kiting, we’ll leave some space for spontaneous adventures — a boat trip, wildlife, snorkeling, or just exploring the colorful local markets.
The Airport of Mombasa is around 50km from Diani Beach. We will organise your transfer to our villa and back to the airport no matter your arrival time.
If you want to extend your stay in Diani, we can help to organise accommodation for the extra days or a Safari to the Tsavo Nationnal park. (Absolutely reccommended)

Relaxed Vibe
I enjoyed the relaxed vibe, the friendly people and of course the nice ladies of the group. It was so nice to meet like-minded people with the same passion for kitesurfing. The spot is great for learning new tricks or just chilling and watching the others take lessons.
New Trick
Birgit is very friendly, relaxed and very experienced. She taught me a new trick (popping), which I practiced for the rest of the week (and I succeeded!). I really enjoyed this coaching class! Always cool to learn new things from the best :)
Fantastic
Would love to join again at another kitecamp, for sure will be back with Big Blue Boards! Thank you so much for this great experience! ♥
